I enjoy having your product and with the chance I can help you in return, I am willing to share the code and scripts I designed for a specific type of infection yet it ended up working for many of them. Please let me know if you plan on using it as I did spend a few weeks getting all the information together in one place. I have the Source Code for the Brute Remover tool, but the main thing I feel will benifit your application is the repair scripts in the Fix.cmd file. I think the method I use to close all active apps is a bit extreme for a professional tool but it is very effective, so maybe detection of extreme cases then make it happen. Anyway, I am a Visual Basic 6 Programmer so if you have any need for a fresh set of eyes/ideas I'm on MSN and I will subscribe to this thread. Good luck for the future ReturnOfNights
